why did they have to pick that guy? what a horrid name!

I'm still battling the Mild Nausea War. Yesterday I bought some SeaBands bracelets that help with motion sickness and other forms of nausea. I think they're helping, too. At first I wasn't sure but when I took them off to take my shower this morning I quickly started to feel worse and couldn't wait to get them back on once I got out.

I've noticed the weirdest thing. There is a word, a certain word -- well, a name, actually -- that will bring on my nausea whenever I hear it. This is sad because the newspeople on NPR won't stop saying his name. Ugg, I can't even type it, it makes me feel ill. Suffice to say, it's the name of the new Attorney General they've just sworn in, hence the nonstop blathering on the news.

It isn't to do with anything political, it's just that his name is so closely related to another word that has been making me feel ill lately because I've been sick. Once again, it nauseates me too much to type it, but it's like boogers, but not as fun and more slimy. Eww eww eww.

If you come up to me and say his name, I might barf on your shoes. You have been warned.

On a happier note, a week from tomorrow is Thanksgiving and we'll finally get to share the news with our family. We're going to have a full house, too -- there will be 12 people here counting myself and The Husband. Ohh, the looks on their faces . . . I can't wait. Can't wait, I tell you!

Next Tuesday I have my next doctor's appointment with the OB. They're going to do another ultrasound, so this time we should be able to clearly see the baby and hear the heartbeat. I do hope everything is okay. I feel so crummy that surely everything must be fine.

Ooh, The Husband is home! I hope he is pleased that I finally got off my butt and started dinner. It's the only productive thing I've done all week! He's so patient!
